BTW, used the Celestron CPC 8" SCT tonight. Strange looking scope but mount is solid. No jittering when focusing, very accurate goto. Still can't get over the 3-star alignment procedure though; very tedious to slew manually. Nonetheless a great scope overall and forbidable competition to the Meade LX90LNT.WTS C8 SCT (SOLD)

Woo Hoo! Great excuse to buy a new scope now! BTW, used the Celestron CPC 8" SCT tonight. Strange looking scope but mount is solid. No jittering when focusing, very accurate goto. Still can't get over the 3-star alignment procedure though; very tedious to slew manually. Nonetheless a great scope overall and forbidable competition to the Meade LX90LNT.
